I’ve got to admit that I was one of the most impatient people I know. It took me all of about 8 years of self discovery to find out what an important little gem patience really is. I see patience as a little breather in between manifestations.

Let’s Look at the Word Re-Solution

When we get whipped up in a world full of chaos and madness, it’s very hard to remain calm. However, it is essential to be the calm in the storm if you are going to be the purveyor of change. Try daily doses of meditation (you only need about 10-20 minutes).

We all have our moments when life throws that curve ball and it is our responsibility to alchemize anything that is tossed our way.

This simply means to stop, take a knee and ask yourself, ‘how do I want this to resolve or play out?’. When you can see the resolution (look at that word ‘re’ ‘solution’ — you are literally making a new solution to the challenge laid out before you), you begin to change the timeline.

Your job is to hold the vision of how you want the outcome to look. Oh…and to have patience. Sometimes things happen quickly and other times we need that awesome little alchemizer called patience.

How often do we face troubling, irksome, unfortunate, gob-smacking, gut-wrenching, negative situations? A lot? Sometimes?

Is it something you fear coming up against? Do you find yourself worrying about potential ‘what if’s’?

Whatever the answer — we all experience the downs of life as well as the ups. It’s natural and all part of being human. You can have it all together and be the most inimitable spiritual master sitting atop a Tibetan mountain and you will still face problematic encounters.

Problems don’t change, it’s how you deal with or perceive them that needs the changing.

Be Your Own Alchemist

What if I told you that you just might enjoy coming up against a wall in the future when you know what it represents and how to deal with it?

What we do with our potential problems is what I want to speak about today. You can turn any situation into gold if you know how. What am I talking about?

How Much Treasure Are You Sitting On — Or Is It Just a Bunch of Rotten Bananas?

There is always treasure to be found in your trash. Turning your situation around is just as simple as taking an over-ripe banana and making a banana loaf with it.

Savvy?

When life throws you lemons, make Margaritas! When we mine what we initially deem as a negative situation, we could potentially find a myriad of gemstones in the experience. The key is to have the right attitude and miners helmet!

We are forever expanding and learning — that’s just how our soul operates — when we get thrown curve balls they are really opportunities for expansion.

Yeah, your first reaction to something “caca” is most likely to feel down in the dumps but look back at your past — how many times did that awful thing turn out to be your greatest blessing?

Have you ever stopped to peek into your past experiences to see how things turned out? It’s a great exercise as past experience often shows us future solutions.

If, every time something bad happens to you, you keep reiterating that your life is going to the dogs, then look at what a powerful manifestor you are!

Huh?

If you’re the kind of person who can’t ever find a positive aspect in a negative situation and all you can do is whine, complain and moan about how rotten your life is then you are creating more of that. Kudos!

But wait, what about trying a different approach next time a truck load of sour grapes is being dumped on your doorstep? After all, vinegar is very useful for cleaning toilets, did you know?

How to Turn Situations to Your Advantage

Okay, let’s get short, sweet and to the point of this blog:

Don’t fear the future — If you find yourself slipping into worry about what might happen to you and how you’ll deal with it, just affirm: ‘I am a powerful co-creator and I can bend anything to accommodate my joy’.

All Things Will Pass — This is a powerful realization as it works with both good and bad situations. This is not to say you must fear all joyful moments as they will soon be gone — it is just a reminder that there is an ebb and flow to life and that when you are in the moment, it might feel like things will never change. Thing is, the only constant you can rely on is change. So, remind yourself that if you are having a bad day, tomorrows dawn might be a rebirth on the horizon. And if you are experiencing joy in the moment, you are projecting more bliss into your future — so nothing to worry about there either.

Mine the Matter — You’ve got to dig deep into the situation (whatever it is) and scour over all possibilities to find the diamond. Life doesn’t throw you anything you (a) can’t handle and (b) don’t need in order to grow. And you’re just going to love the muchness that you have once you take the lesson and experience the gratification of growth!

Future Projection — No matter how bogged down and gloomy you may feel about things today, try to visualize how you want things to be. Close your eyes and play a movie in your mind (in the region of your third eye, in between your brows). Choose how you want this situation to play out. Keep watching the DVD until you smile and really feel this outcome ingraining on your path. Draw on that when you feel yourself slipping into dread or doubt. Keep affirming your ideal outcome. You are an alchemist, get used to it!

Program a New Reality, Neo

A really fun thing to do is to keep a diary of all the events that you have turned around through your own personal alchemy. When you look back on the pages, you’ll start to see the pattern of your power emerging.

You are sitting on an immense and phenomenal ability — the power of mind, heart and emotional connection (read HERE for more about this supreme trinityand how to use it) that turns your matrix into the womb of creation that it was always supposed to be (did you know that the word ‘matrix’ means ‘womb’ in Latin?).

You create in your own personal matrix. So, don’t fear the future and what it may bring — scream out, ‘bring it on!’ and know that you can figuratively turn any base metal into gold because problems are only disguised potentials.

It’s your job to uncover the illusion and to stop buying into victimization.

Take a Lesson from the Magpie

To hammer the point home — there is an inspirational, innovative and enchanting gallery/shop where I live called Magpie.

They ‘upcycle’ trash into the most beautiful art concentrating on jaw-dropping, spectacular chandeliers.

What a perfect metaphor for us — isn’t it about time we turned our trash into art? Our lives could be sheer masterpieces of glued together strife made triumphant!
